music videos.

i've just seen videos or two of my favourite songs!
'there are birds', which is definitely the ruby suns best song.
good effort, i say!
...for a kiwi video since they pretty much always have a budget of zip.
it just falls apart at the end of the vid when someone thought it'd be "quirky/cool" to use some lame paint effect all over the last scene.
which they haven't used the whole rest of the video, so it makes no sense.
...

AND THEN, omg, Boy with a Coin by Iron & Wine.
in it there are all these girls dancing just like how i used to dance around the kitchen to it - only they're way better, and also more organized about it (cos, you know, it's a very flamenco sounding song, so it's no big strrretch or freaky coincidence or anything.) and there's this teacher watching them dance and after a while she's like 'enough of this' and she starts to dance.
And when she dances ivy patterns appear on the floorboards and when she kicks, leaves fly from her dress which turn into birds, i think.
i think they're birds...

oh and also today i've watched: white stripes - blue orchid, stone temple pilots - sour girl (which has buffy the vampyre slayer and horrible teletubbies in it!!), and vaseline (stp), white stripes - my doorbell. and nine inch nail's perfect drug. but those were all research.
